Auto accident resulting in a herniated disc and a few bulged discs - safe to run?

Patient

Q: I was recently involved in an auto accident - I was completely stopped and was hit from behind. I had an MRI done and found that I had a bulged disc in my neck and a herniation as well as two bulged discs in my lumbar. Is it safe to run or will I just have to stick to fast walking?
